I am a business, transactions, contracts attorney. I was the sole in-house attorney for a good-sized staffing company. I can review and create nearly any type of document you need. I enjoy writing, reading, and editing contracts. I want to read your contract. If I cannot do it, I won't take the job and I won't charge you for what I cannot do. However, in reality, unless you need a 225 page financing agreement, is has never been an issue.

Quitclaim Deed
North Carolina
Witnesses required for a quitclaim deed?
I am the owner of a house that I am looking to transfer to another person. I am considering using a quitclaim deed to complete the transfer, but I am unsure if witnesses are required. I understand that witnesses are typically required for legal documents, but I am not sure if this is the case for a quitclaim deed. I need to know if witnesses are required for a quitclaim deed so that I can complete the transfer correctly.
N'kia N.
The general rule for a North Carolina quitclaim deed is that it must be properly (1) signed by all grantors, (2) notarized, and (3) recorded. (Grantees are not required to sign.) In a sense, the notary public serves as a "witness," as indicated by the language in a typical notary block. However, no additional witnesses are required. Anyone who has questions about a North Carolina quitclaim deed should consider consulting with a knowledgeable North Carolina attorney.

Purchase Contract
New York
Can a seller back out of a purchase contract after accepting an offer?
I recently made an offer on a property and the seller accepted it, and we signed a purchase contract outlining the terms and conditions of the sale. However, a few days later, the seller informed me that they have received a higher offer from another buyer and now want to back out of our agreement. I am wondering if the seller has the legal right to do so, and if not, what options do I have to enforce the purchase contract and proceed with the sale?
Arthur S.
A contract "purchaser" has definite rights under its contract to purchase the property. The contract is binding on both parties. Every contract is different...and some do contain provisions entitling either part to terminate the contract on the occurrence of certain events or prior to the expiration of certain time period,,,,but it would be unusual for a contract to entitle a Seller to terminate in the absence of Purchaser's breach or the occurrence of a specified event. Assuming your contract (i) does not entitle your seller to simply walk away from his obligations under the contract simply because he no longer wants to sell to you (in this case, because he received a higher offer), and (ii) does not prohibit the commencement by you of a "specific enforcement" action to force your Seller to transfer title to you in compliance with the contract enforce, then, and in such event, you are entitled to commence an immediate action to specifically enforce your rights under the contract. Further, concurrently with the commencement of such action, you are also entitled to immediately file a "lis pendens" against the property pending the outcome of your action. A lis pendens is a notice to the world (filed against the property) that you have commenced an action to enforce your contract....and anyone acquiring title to the property after the filing of the lis pendens does so subject to your superior right to title acquire title. The filing of a lis pendens is a very powerful tool and effectively tells all other prospective buyers of the property that they would be doing so at their own risk.

Quitclaim deed vs. title transfer?
I recently purchased a property and am in the process of transferring the title. I am trying to understand the difference between a Quitclaim deed and a title transfer. I am looking to make sure I am making the best decision for my situation when transferring the title of the property.
Linda W.
A Quitclaim Deed is a form of title transfer as is a Warranty Deed and a Special Warranty Deed. Quitclaim Deed – provides the grantee with the least protection; it contains no promises or warranties, and only conveys whatever title and interest the grantor has. A quitclaim deed makes no assurance that the grantor actually has an ownership interest in a property; it merely states that if the grantor does, they release those ownership rights. Quitclaim deeds are typically used to transfer property in non-sale situations, such as transfers of property between family members. Warranty Deed - makes a promise to the buyer that the seller has good title to the property. A quitclaim deed, on the other hand, makes no promises.

Obligations after receiving a quitclaim deed?
I recently purchased a home in a different state from the seller. The seller provided me with a quitclaim deed, but I am unsure of what my obligations are now that I own the property. I am concerned about potential legal issues that may arise and want to make sure I am taking the proper steps to protect both myself and the seller.
Bobby H.
Provided you have fully paid the purchase price, you should not have any further obligations as it relates to the Seller. This, however, may depend on whether there are specific terms in the sales agreement that survive the closing. Although your obligations as the new owner of the property to other persons largely depends on the state, in most, if not all states, you will be responsible for paying any taxes or assements to the state, county, or any municipality in which the propery is located subject to any qualifying exemptions. Also, most states impose a general duty on propery owners to avoid and/or discover and warn of certain risks of harm to any guests or persons invited by you to be present on the property depending on how the property is used (e.g., like whether the property is used for residential or commerical purposes). In some states, there may even be a similar, although limited duty to avoid or warn of certain risks of harm to trespassers on the property. A home or property owner's insurance policy will likely provide some protection with respect to the latter. Additionall, a quitclaim deed generally does not provide any protection for the purchaser if there's an issue with the title to the property. Therefore, an owner's title insurance policy may be advisable if you have not already obtained one.

Florida
Amending a purchase and sale agreement?
I am in the process of purchasing a property and have signed a Purchase and Sale Agreement. Since then, some of the terms of the agreement have changed and I would like to know if it is possible to amend the agreement to reflect the current situation. I would like to know the legal process and requirements for amending a Purchase and Sale Agreement.
Moss S.
You are best to have an attorney amend the agreement. Real estate agents are not allowed to draft language, only fill in forms.
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
